Camassia quamash
Plante vivace bulbeuse des prairies d'Amérique du Nord occidentale à fleurs bleues, principale nourriture traditionnelle de nombreuses tribus.
Camassia quamash, commonly known as camas, is a traditional staple food of many Indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest, prized for its sweet, nutty flavor after prolonged pit-cooking. Rich in inulin, starch, and saponins, it serves as a prebiotic and energy source, with emerging evidence supporting blood sugar modulation. Its historical significance is underscored by its role in trade and territorial conflicts.
The primary active compounds include inulin, a fructan that resists digestion in the upper GI tract and is fermented by gut microbiota, promoting short-chain fatty acid production and prebiotic effects. Starch provides sustained energy release, while saponins may influence glucose metabolism by inhibiting alpha-glucosidase and enhancing insulin sensitivity. The combination of inulin and saponins contributes to glycemic modulation, though human data are limited.
